About emerald:  Prized since ancient times, a fine emerald can be more expensive than a high quality diamond of the same carat weight.  Emeralds are green members of the popular beryl family of minerals.  Mummies were often buried with emeralds and the gems were popular in ancient Rome.  They have graced Crown Jewels and embellished the thrones of some of the oldest dynasties in history.  In ancient times emeralds held a real fascination for the people.  Emeralds were, in fact, considered to be a cure for many diseases.  As a result of such claims, emeralds were greatly sought after and a profitable trade was established between Egypt and nations as far away as India.  Emerald symbolism encompasses not only royalty but also wit, eloquence, and foresight. Emeralds are the birthstone for May.

About 14k gold fill: 14K gold filled wire is a professional jewelers grade wire.  Gold filled wire is not plated. It is a tube of solid 14K gold mechanically bonded to a brass or silver base. There is 100 times more gold in gold filled than in gold plate wire. This layer of gold must be a minimum of 1/20th of the total metal weight to be called gold filled. The color looks exactly like 14k gold.  It is tarnish-resistant, safe for sensitive skin and unlike gold plate, it will not wear off. It is a great way to enjoy affordable gold jewelry.
